Wow.
This is the first time since the exhibition at Northern Michigan that I’ve been able to see an entire MSU basketball game this year. They certainly looked a lot different from that October exhibition. And from last year. This team looks pretty competent on offense and is really fun to watch.
Michigan State opted again to go with a smaller lineup to start, with Tre Holloman on the floor and Frankie Fidler ready to come off the bench. The Spartans won the tip and a three from Holloman started the scoring. That was followed by Jeremy Fears finding Szymon Zapala in the paint and then a nice drive by Jaden Akins for a 7-0 Spartans lead.
